You know what I don't like.
Those brown shoes that men wear, they look a bit like shoes, and a bit like trainers, but they are neither a trainer nor a shoe and therefore look shit.

What have you noticed other people wearing that you think is shit?

People who wear Vans (they're done to death, think outside the box you bunch of squares)
People who wear expensive clothes and think they're good because they're expensive
People who do their top buttons up on polos/shirts
People who wear waxed Barbour jackets, again, done to death
People who wear Abercrombie and Fitch
People who wear Hollister
People who wear short sleeve shirts with button down collars
People who have massive turn ups on their jeans
People who wear Topman t-shirts with prints on

Yeah but take influences from elsewhere init.
This always gets my goat. Fashion is shit, proper shit, and disposable. The same with 99% of stuff in high street chains. It's about permanently maintaining style, your own one at that. I can't put into words how annoyed I'd be if I saw someone wearing the same thing as me. Once I walked into a pub at Fulham and someone had a similar (not the same) shirt as me and I went home and changed. I definitely take it too far but I can't comprehend why anyone would want to dress like everyone else.

Up early, on site at 09.30, home for 13.00, dogs out for two hours, SLEEP, put an oven meal in whilst shouting at the dullards on Pointless, type up report, bed.

That's neither good nor bad. It's adequate. But it suits me.
